Character Cameos in BatB

From wikipedia:

"Various characters from other Disney animated movies make some brief cameos throughout the movie. Bambi’s mother from Bambi makes a brief cameo as the deer seen in the opening shot, Merlin’s sugar pot from The Sword in the Stone makes a brief appearance during the “Be Our Guest” segment, a small figurine of King Triton from The Little Mermaid can be seen in the bottom of the screen as Beast reveals the library to Belle, Hen Wen from The Black Cauldron, Oliver the cat from Oliver & Company, Cyril Proudbottom, and Ichabod Crane from The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad also appear as the creatures and townsfolk during the opening song of the movie."

I know about Bambi's mother, but I demand screencaps for the others. Also I'm well aware that it's wikipedia and the second one could clearly be misinterpreted as could the others but I'm still curious.

Here's a screenshot of an Arthur Cameo which isn't mentioned (look at the fish): (could that cat be oliver?)

and Triton:

The odd thing is, I remember the squirrel looking EXACTLY like Arthur did the first time I saw it, but when taking the cap it just looks like another squirrel :?

And there's a pig and a boy that slightly resembles their Black Cauldron counterparts, but I wouldn't call it a cameo.

EW REDRAWN DVD

I'll get some screencaps from the actually good laserdisc later.

And is it just me, or does that pig that walks around during Belle (the song) look a lot like the pig from The Black Cauldron?

--EDIT--

Oh, Hen Wen IS the pig. I've never seen that movie, I just know what the pig looks like :lol:

They don't really look like Triton or Oliver. :(

Unless they were among the things that were redrawn for the IMAX release, I'd say they're reaching here.

Too bad I had to get rid of my old VHS's, I'd love to make a comparison for myself.

Nah, those weren't part of what was redrawn for the IMAX, I'm just saying ew at that DVD in general. :D
